Replaced spring clip on shift rod and everything is working better than before. Smooth with no dragging. Thanks all for your help.

Ok Brewers said the acorn goes against the flat side of the washer. Sure enough it dropped in the hole. So thats fixed. Now on to 3rd and 4th once it cools off.

Drives great now, except I dont have 3rd or 4th. I think the linkage came off some how. It was installed according to the book.

Trying to get away from the computer so I can go.

I guess I need to call Brewers now.

The washer does not have a place for the acorn to drop into. Thats why its backward and the double nut. All these parts came from Brewers.

Going for a ride in a few.

No the adjustment and alignment are correct now based on my mods. The engine is moved back becasue of the Reily Motorsports K frame and engine mounts.

I used all the RMS components. Last night I drilled the bellhousing and attached the spring. Aside from being moved back all the linkage is parallel. I move the z bar ball stud to accommodate for the engine setback. All is parallel and straight. No binding. I will talk to Bill today about that...

Plenty of rod but I'm maxed out on freeplay. Any more and the bearing will be up against the fingers.

Yes for some reason the engine is setback about 3/4 to 1 inch. No adjustment on the RMS system that I can see. I'm just now seeing these things after years of building and restoration. Z bar is parallel as I moved the ball stud for it back on the frame. New drive shaft so that change is...

I will change it because if you play out how it works with the two different mounting positions the spring also helps to return the arm. The other way it just keep slack out.

What started all this mess was I had a B body pivot arm instead of the A body which is longer. When I was through I had replaced flywheel, clutch disc, pressure plate, arm pivot and all linkage.

Motor is sitting on a RMS Coilover system with poly mounts. I am going under the car tomorrow for a final clutch adjustment and try and fix the spring. It may be the angle of the picture making it look wrong but I will check it all out. I have only drove it about 5 miles. I have noticed it is a...

Car is a 69 Dart Swinger 340 4 speed. All the linkage and throw out bearing arm came from Brewers after a conversation with Dan. These are the factory parts according to him. I decided to use my chrome Z bar as it matched perfectly with the one from Brewers.

This is a 340 with a blowproof bell. It seems to me that the spring is really stressed to much I'll look to see if there is a place on the bell. Thanks all

Does this look correct? Thanks FABO

3:91s going in next week and a little smaller radial tire. 26" tall instead of 27. The drag radials will be sold. at my age I only street drive. But then again look where it broke. The dumbasses at the drive shaft shop but a combo u joint on a 1330 flange on the new drive shaft. It has a 7290...

Wont budge!

Driveshaft bent, had a new one made. Will install if I can get the nut off the yoke to replace it.

Cant get it off.

Yes but this is a street car and I set the pinion according to a tech at Mark Williams. Its rare that I do the 4K drops but which did not break it, it was the 1, 2 shift, no tires spinning.

Mancini extra heavy duty

Ok bolts twisted off everything else ok. Will use U bolts when rear is rebuilt.

Thanks all, the pinion angle is set up correctly. U joint did not break, just tore up the caps and flange. I will see the car this afternoon and Im betting its those crappy strap clamps that broke. I will change the pinion flange when the pumpkin is rebuilt next week for 1350 and u bolt clamps.

Thank you for the info, Good read

Not sure of brand, no grease fitting. Stock setup

Well on the street I guess no more power shifting but I think the combination of big tires and the 3:23s with a strap type hold down may have been more than it could take. I havent seen the pinion yoke yet. The drive shaft was built locally without any grease fittings. Had less than 1000 miles...

Was having fun with the 69 Dart tonight. Did a launch at 4000 and power shifted to second at 6500 (4 speed). The rear 7290 let go and tore up the flange of the drive shaft. I have 255/60-15 drag radials running on 3:23 gears 489 case. I estimate the mtr is 425 to 450 on the power. Solid lifter...
